Chapter 310: Chapter 310: The Ambition of Blossoming Both Inner Qi and Superpowers

A few seconds later, Lu Xiao’s cheeks turned rosy.

The feeling of energy furiously pouring into his body from the Mutated Crystal was simply exhilarating.

But no matter how exhilarating it was, he couldn’t just let out a scream.

If he did, that would be rather strange.

After all, his hand was still touching a "woman" who wasn’t wearing any clothes.

Even though this woman was transformed from a Mimic Crystal, in people’s eyes, she appeared completely real.

Chen Fei was still watching from behind, if he were to let out even a single cry of excitement, she might just beat him to death.

"Lu Xiao, are you absorbing the energy from the Mutated Crystal?" Chen Fei saw Lu Xiao standing motionless and couldn’t help but ask.

"Ah... right, I’m trying to absorb a bit to see the effects, how much longer can you hold out?"

"Ten minutes."

"Okay, call for me when time’s up, and we’ll leave."

Ten minutes should be about enough; absorbing too much could be bad; if the Mutant Energy inside his body became too much and conflicted with his Inner Qi, that would spell trouble.

Moreover, absorption wasn’t the end of it, he had to integrate this superpower into his viscera.

Although he could directly blend the superpower into his Inner Qi, after some thought, Lu Xiao felt this was not quite right.

Inner Qi and superpowers are, after all, two different kinds of energy with somewhat different modes of action.

Although his Inner Qi mixed with superpower and ascended to Third-tier when he helped Chen Fei absorb a Mutated Crystal, Lu Xiao had carefully checked and found that the two energies were still clearly separated within his meridians.

In simple terms, the superpower only expanded the meridians, just bringing his energy strength up to Third-tier standards.

In actual usage, Inner Qi remained Inner Qi, and superpower was superpower.

So, he decided to follow Chen Fei’s suggestion and merge the superpower into his viscera.

Then, Inner Qi and superpowers would use two different circulating methods.

And the most decisive factor that made Lu Xiao change his mind was that he did not possess a Mutant Ability.

Logically, once the body starts to accommodate superpower, a Mutant Ability should emerge, but he had none.

Lu Xiao figured it was probably because his meridians had accommodated the superpower, and he would need to use his viscera to absorb superpower in order to produce a Mutant Ability.

He was indeed very interested in Mutant Abilities.

...

"Lu Xiao, it’s about time, we can withdraw now," Chen Fei called out after about nine minutes.

Lu Xiao immediately snapped back to reality, without any hesitation, he turned and walked away.

He didn’t stop until he reached the corner.

"Fei, try to see if she will attack if you don’t use your abilities," Lu Xiao shouted toward Chen Fei.

"Okay!"

Soon, Chen Fei also retreated to the corner.

Having glanced at Lu Xiao, Chen Fei withdrew all her superpowers.

With the control over superpowers lost, all the metals rapidly congealed, and then with a bang, fell to the ground.

However, in the next second, another surge of overwhelming superpower burst forth from the woman’s body, charging towards Chen Fei.

"Go!" Lu Xiao pulled Chen Fei back into the corner.

With a boom, the superpower slammed into the wall, causing the entire underground chamber to buzz with the vibration.

"It seems it’s not determined by whether she attacks or not. Let me see if I’ll be attacked. Remember to pull me back, okay?" Lu Xiao said to Chen Fei and then stepped around the corner once more.

Nothing happened, no attack came.

The corners of Lu Xiao’s mouth lifted, this would make things easier.

He could come down anytime to absorb a wave of superpower.

"Weird, does it really only attack women?" Chen Fei frowned; such a rule was absurd.

"Not necessarily, it could be determined by other factors," Lu Xiao shook his head. Regardless, the fact that this thing didn’t attack him was good news.

Even though the Mutant exchange battle was set to begin in two days, if he worked hard, he might reach Fourth Rank before the finals.

Even if he couldn’t reach Fourth Rank, storing up Fourth-tier level of superpower in his body would also be great; a surprise attack at that point might turn out to be remarkably effective.

"Let’s go up for now."

"Okay."

When the two came out of the basement, it had already grown dark outside.

"I need to assimilate the superpower I just absorbed, Fei, you... get some rest first," Lu Xiao headed to the living room and sat down cross-legged on the sofa.

Since neither the meridians nor the viscera had taken in the superpower he had just absorbed, and it was just coiling inside him, Lu Xiao did not dare delay; if it were to move chaotically, he would most likely be in danger.

"I’ll watch over you, to have someone on standby," Chen Fei naturally did not go to sleep but sat down beside Lu Xiao.
